Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Zn dust (1.80 g, 27.5 mmol) was vigorously stirred in DMA (11 ml) under nitrogen and the suspension was heated at 65° C. Trimethylsilyl chloride (0.37 g, 3.39 mmol) and 1,2-dibromoethane (0.64 g, 3.39 mmol) was added and stirring continued for 40 min. A solution of 3-iodo-azetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (6.00 g, 21.2 mmol) in dimethylacetamide (DMA, 10 ml) was then added dropwise to the solution over a period of 30 min and then the reaction mixture allowed to cool to room temperature over 16 h. The resulting solution was used without any purification in the next step.
